Is it permissible to boycott one's mother because of her intense jealousy?

A man says: When he visits his mother, or when he is dutiful to her, she becomes intensely jealous. He says: When he visits her, a problem is bound to arise. He says: So I avoided visiting her so that no problem would arise, and so that she would not curse me?
Why would she curse him?
Q: She gets jealous if he does anything: if he speaks, if he talks to his children, if he talks to his wife, if he talks about this or that?
A: No, it is not permissible for him to boycott her. He should avoid the thing that makes her jealous and visit her. This is a mistake. Unless she gets angry about something, he should not say anything that angers her. He should leave the joking with his children for another time, or do the same with his wife. It is not obligatory for him to joke with his wife and children in her presence when she is not pleased with it. He should leave it for another time.
